Look at this coordinated hit job:
Oh no!
A celebrity took pictures with White House officials, the governor of Arkansas, and other celebrities?
How will he ever live this down??
This kind of thing worked a few years ago.
A popular celebrity would do something to signal they are vaguely conservative, or simply friends with conservatives, and the media would immediately issue a "two minutes of hate" proclamation to threaten them with excommunication from polite society unless they apologized for associating with right-wingers.
Other viral comedians like Shane Gillis and Tony Hinchcliffe were also at the UFC event, but they are crass while Bargatze is wholesome and open about his Christian upbringing, so he was the obvious choice to destroy.
The liberal NPCs on Bluesky have already received the update to their Outrage Chips™ and are venting about Bargatze for the sin of ... attending a UFC fight and taking a picture with a member of the Kennedy family.
Variety cited another comedian (one you've probably never heard of) named W. Kamau Bell in its hit piece.
I wonder why they left this quote out?
Yep, the ol' "everyone who votes differently than us are Nazis and the only good Nazi is a dead Nazi" routine.
Glad to see Variety platforming a "comedian" who wants to execute half the country.
Oh, and speaking of Variety, here's more on the author of that wonderful piece about Nate Bargatze and "fascism":
We'll have to see if Bargatze ignores the woke mob (this is always the right thing to do).
